Anyway, rapidbison42... Thanks for the heads-up about this show. If you stumble upon anything else like it, you should definitely start a new thread. 😁

way too expensive beer.

Unbelievable... $5 for a lukewarm Budweiser...

At least the bars nearby had decent prices on drinks...

They had Budweiser at The Little shop for two bucks. A can, obviously. Just a little 12oz can. 😬

I’m into all kinds of stuff... 😬

I don't know, I guess I've just had Calexico stuck on loop in my head for a few days now. 😁

So, is Basement Jaxx a sure thing?

So, is Basement Jaxx a safe bet?

100%.

Started way too late and ended up getting exactly what we came for: The Chemical Brothers.... Fak... it was insane. Such a shame the set was so short, but still, totally worth it. I felt like I was gonna burst just like that kettle in the video projection 😍
I mean, no need to overthink it, they’re legends, they know what they’re doing. Just wish I could catch them for a full set, a few hours, just dance and lose myself... plus those visuals of theirs that just take it to another level 👍

Honestly, I was so stoked that I didn't even mind the walk back to the car in the industrial district 😁

I ended up pulling out at the very last second, which turned out to be a massive mistake because I stayed up until 6 AM on Wednesday night just messing around, and then—as if things weren't bad enough—I ended up being the passenger in a car accident that totally wrecked my whole vibe 🙂 ... so now I’m just sitting here feeling pretty miserable about it. My friends actually went, and they were telling me it was an absolute blast; apparently, they even crashed some private after-party at a club later on, so now I'm just waiting until I can finally grab a drink with them and see all the photos 🙂

I mean, there isn't much to say, they're pros. They know exactly what they're doing. I really wish I could just listen to them in a full set, maybe for a few hours, just dance and lose myself... especially with those video projections of theirs that just make everything better 👍

😁 😁
I actually danced, which is a big deal for me. 😁

Well, if you guys had been smarter, you would've just dropped five bucks and grabbed a ride to the silos. 😬

I am returning to civilization now to join you all. After endless 🙂 🙂 🙂, listening to Snoop Dogg and "Throw Your Hands Up in the Air" was actually incredible—it genuinely improved my night. That kind of energy is real. 🤣
The Chemical Brothers were truly excellent. I didn't really experience any "garbage," though. It felt somewhat sterile, but that is exactly what I expected.
As for actual trash, there was plenty of that around.

That's a hell of a long trip from New York City... Where on earth are you living? Chicago? 😬

I'm walking while I make my way... I lingered in New York City for a bit, swung by Chicago, and now here I am. I walk fast. 😁

we were just wandering around near the suburbs. 😁
anyway, the ocean looks killer today, plus we got a little bit of rain.
my throat's killing me a bit.

but seriously, everyone's obsessing over The Chemical Brothers, yet nobody's even mentioning LCD Soundsystem. was the band even there?
